With selinux on we end up calling __btrfs_setxattr when we create an inode, which calls btrfs_start_transaction(). The problem is we''ve already called that in btrfs_new_inode, and in btrfs_start_transaction we end up doing a wait_current_trans(). If btrfs-transaction has started committing it will wait for all handles to finish, while the other process is waiting for the transaction to commit. This is fixed by using btrfs_join_transaction, which won''t wait for the transaction to commit.
